We have an obligation to empower teachers to guide and inspire all students to learn. In turn, we have an obligation to provide high-quality assessment systems, linked with teachers' instructional practice, that can help to assure an anxious public about the competency of our educators and the soundness of the educational system itself. Supporting and, at times, leading the way in these efforts, Educational Testing Service is playing a vital role in putting learning at the heart of school accountability. By providing high-quality standards-based assessments and the professional development tools and materials for teachers and other educators that can make these assessments a meaningful part of informed instruction, we help improve student learning. We are privileged to be in the business of advancing excellence in our schools. Through its Teaching and Learning Division, ETS constantly strives to further these goals by forging partnerships with those groups charged with setting and meeting the standards for excellence in education. ETS's experience, flexibility, technology, and unsurpassed expertise, help us create, with these partners, innovative solutions to the growing challenges faced by the education community in this country and throughout the world.

Home Carnegie Perspectives Carnegie Perspectives Previous Issues ... - Accountability April 2004 Teaching to the Test By Lloyd Bond A recurring criticism of tests used in high-stakes decision making is that they distort instruction and force teachers to "teach to the test." The criticism is not without merit. The public pressure on students, teachers, principals, and school superintendents to raise scores on high-stakes tests is tremendous, and the temptation to tailor and restrict instruction to only that which will be tested is almost irresistible. Although many view teaching to the test as an all or none issue, in practice it is actually a continuum. At one extreme, some teachers examine the achievement objectives as described in their state's curriculum and then design instructional activities around those objectives. This is done without regard to a particular test. At the other extreme is the unsavory and simply dishonest practice of drilling students on the actual items that will appear on the tests. But is teaching to the test all bad? Emphatically not. Consider the coach who drills young athletes on the very skills they will perform in competition, or the typing instructor who teaches students precisely the finger arrangements and keystrokes that will be used in typing. These practices are not seen as unethical or unsavory for the simple reason that in these two domains instruction and assessment merge into a single activity. Indeed, instructing students on anything other than the actual test itself seems illogical.

One of the biggest consultations on education policy ever seen in Scotland. The results were staggering: there were more than 1,500 responses covering the views of more than 20,000 people. Inevitably, given the scale of response, there was a wide diversity of views. However, there was also remarkable consistency on what was said about learning and teaching The consensus was that Scotland wanted a: balanced flexible manageable curriculum appropriately assessed.
